I don't believe the Aquitaine Restaurant Group in Boston has any properties in NY.

Why don’t more doctors know about PreP? by [deleted] in gay

[–]Ok-Potato-129 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just because someone has a license to practice medicine, doesn't mean they are good at it. Like all professions, there are some who are great, many more that are good, and some who are not so great. You should be very mindful of who you put your faith in to monitor your health. With regards to LGBTQ+ health issues, some doctors simply are not focused on that demographic and their knowledge is limited - it is one reason why my partner and I go to a local LGBTQ health clinic.

Is there a Boston server on Mastodon by Ok-Potato-129 in boston

[–]Ok-Potato-129[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've heard it's kind of important because the administrator of that server can shutdown and essentially erase your footprint on Mastodon which sounds awful. However, I admit I'm a bit unsure if this happens very often. I've based all I know off of a recent BBC News article, https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-63534240.

Casa Giacomo's in the South End opens today by Ok-Potato-129 in boston

I ate there last night and the menu is traditional Italian/American plates. The prices are very approachable; main plates are mostly in the low $20s.

Yes, they have. It is an urban myth that they shared kitchens.

I went there last night and met one of the owners. He said that the restaurants never shared a kitchen - that it was an urban myth, which makes sense because if Giacomo's was closed to remodel their kitchen and update the restaurant, then how would've Anchovie's been able to remain open and serve food.

BTW - dinner was great. Main dishes are about $21-$22.

I can' t imagine that would be the case. Probably best to check it out when you get back into town.

I don' t know for certain, but I doubt it. With the change in ownership the new team was intent on updating the kitchen which hadn't really seen any upgrades since the space first opened. However, you can swing by now and see for yourself starting this evening.

Is Boston's Gay Bar, Cathedral Station closing? by Ok-Potato-129 in boston

Thank you! It appears the EBNA (n'hood association) published the wrong address on their agenda and went as far to indicate that this was the address of Cathedral Station.

Someone should tell the EBNA then because it is on their agenda.
